A man with long, swept-back dark hair and a red bindi on his forehead stands in front of a carved stone relief wall with figures and chariot-like motifs. He wears a saffron-orange shawl over the shoulders and a long strand of rudraksha-style beads, and he holds a small ceremonial staff in his left hand while gesturing with his right hand as if speaking. The distinctive long hair, saffron clothing and beaded necklace are consistent with the Swamiji (probable) candidate, shown in a teaching or explanatory pose at a temple site.
